In 2010 I biked through a lot of Japanese countryside and saw quite a few drones (of the helicopter variety) spraying crops. They seemed human-controlled, but still, way ahead of their time.

The "j" is always what put me off from learning Clojure. I've had too many bad experiences with JDKs and JVMs that I stay a thousand kilometers away from any thing that has "J" in it unless it's referring to Ja

Personally I find the Ubuntu tiling asssistant quite adequate (super+1 super+2 super+3 etc. on the numeric keypad) and haven't really understood what these tiling WMs offer over that.

I really wish they could just make HTML support <img src="foo.mp4"> and have it behave exactly like all other images in how CSS handles it (with auto loop, no controls). This would solve all the reasons people use G

By far the best way I've found to reduce hallucinations is to explicitly allow the model to say some version of "I don't know" in the prompt.

I wouldn't be surprised if their working culture got rid of their most talented people. It is literally a burnout factory. That can easily be the source of all downstream problems.
